stick forward until rotation stops
suggests that you think this is what causes the rotation to stop. It is the opposite rudder which achieves this.
The type I'll be flying has been subject to an AIL which reads:
Spin Recovery must be started at least 3,500 feet above ground level, in order to retain level flight by 1,500 feet, consistent with a height loss during recovery of up to 2,000 feet.
a) check throttle CLOSED;
b) check ailerons CENTRAL;
c) apply full OPPOSITE RUDDER;
d) PAUSE:
e) move the stick firmly FORWARD against the increasing stick force and stick buffet. IF NECESSARY TO THE FRONT STOP and hold it there until rotation ceases;
f) when rotation ceases CENTRALISE the rudder control and ease out of the ensuing dive
I wouldn't have thought stick fully forwards stops the rotation, but both the above and the pilot's notes specifically state stick forwards until rotation stops. I can see the point that it isn't what stops the rotation, but rather an instruction to do it until the rotation ceases.
